Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The definitive biography of Hideki Tojo, the controversial general who redefined military leadership in Showa-era Japan before his downfall during World War II. The military general who became Emperor Hirohito's prime minister, Hideki Tojo is most often remembered as an iron-fisted leader who dragged Japan into World War II andafter spectacular losseswas eventually executed as a war criminal. Yet Tojo was far more than his ignominious end. In fact, as Peter Mauch argues, he was one of the twentieth century's most accomplished military statesmen. Over a career of some forty years, Tojo successfully launched himself into the highest echelons of political power. He was not only a tactical genius, Mauch shows, but also a savvy administrator, a fierce imperialist, and a deeply loyal advisor to the emperor. Tojo's career took off with the notorious Kwantung Army in Manchuria, where he played a key role in escalating the Sino-Japanese War during the 1930s. As he rose through the ranks, becoming minister of war and then army chief of staff, he honed the efficiency of the Imperial Army and enhanced its influence within the emperor's court. All the while, he deftly negotiated the fractious military rivalries that arose wherever he went. Brilliant, ambitious, and often ruthless, Tojo reached political heights that were perhaps matched only by his precipitous fall in the final months of World War II. Layered and evocative, Tojo is at once a riveting military history of Showa-era Japan and a nuanced portrait of the relentless personality at its center. Japans prime minister and top military general during WWII, Hideki Tojo is today associated above all with the ignominy of defeat. Yet, before his downfall, he was a brilliant, ambitious, and at times ruthless political operator. Peter Mauch chronicles Tojos story, his military genius, and the will to power that drove him to supreme heights.
